[quote=Anonymous]Our family is rather well-off but my older sister is currently dating and likely soon to be engaged to the son of a man who is consistently on the Forbes 400 list. While their family has considerably more money than ours, he (my sister's boyfriend) constantly tells people that he's definitely dating up / dating well because of the values my sister has instilled in him. Values he never really cared about before meeting her. He went from jet-setting to a different party in a different country every day to starting his own (now very successful) biz, volunteering and giving back, fixing his relationships with his family, giving up drugs and alcohol, and just becoming a better person overall since he and my sister started dating. She's taught him to focus less on material goods and more on living in the moment and experiencing life with his loved ones and it's like he's this entirely different person - motivated and happy in a way we never thought would be possible for this guy. He says it's because my sister makes him want to be a better person and that he'd do anything to make himself worthy of her. To me, this epitomizes marrying well - marrying the person who pushes you to be the best person you can be, who teaches you new things, and who makes you experience life in a new and beautiful way.
